If a value has been provided for From Zip/Postal Code but To Zip/Postal Code is not specified, search process will assume the highest possible value has been specified as the upper end of the range. Likewise, if a value has been provided for To Zip/Postal Code but From Zip/Postal Code is not specified, search process will assume the lowest possible value has been specified as the lower end of the range.
Note: Zip/Postal Code Range fields on search pages do not allow special characters. This includes special characters (for example, dashes or spaces) that are sometimes used when formatting Zip/Postal Codes for presentation.
